Welcome to New Jersey, kiddos! A state so cool it’s called the Garden State, because of all its jaw-droppingly gorgeous parks and gardens. It’s not all about beautiful flowers and greenery though, it's also home to some fantastic pizza, and the juiciest tomatoes you've ever tasted! But the best thing about New Jersey? It's packed to the brim with the most amazing, fun-loving, and energetic kids you'll ever meet. And this is where our story begins... In a small, bustling town of the Garden State, you'll find a group of kids known as the Capoeira Crew! They always have a spring in their step and a samba beat in their hearts. Their leader? The impossibly cool, Captain Capoeira! Don't be fooled by his serious name. This Captain doesn’t sail ships; he dances, tumbles and kicks in a spectacular display of Capoeira – a Brazilian martial art that’s part dance, part game, and all fun! Captain Capoeira, with his flashy pants and an ever-twirling rainbow-colored bandana, leads his crew with the energy of a thousand jumping beans. He makes you laugh until your belly hurts by teaching Capoeira moves with hilarious names like 'the spinning monkey' or 'the flying squirrel'! Those names might sound silly, but don’t underestimate them. The 'sleeping bunny' move has toppled many opponents with a smile. So, if you're ever in New Jersey and you see a whirlwind of kids flipping, spinning, and laughing, that’s the Capoeira Crew. They are the heart and soul of this beautiful state, spreading joy, laughter, and the love for Capoeira, one cartwheel at a time!
